E36 gets Coilovers, Bushings, and a tune, PLUS DRIFT TESTED!

- čas přidán 1. 03. 2017
- Today we worked on the E36 How to Drift car.
Installed BC Racing BR-Type Coilovers with 10k front springs and 12k rear springs.
Then we fixed our rear toe change problem with some Syncro Design Works trailing arm bushings.
Our tune was junk so we got a RKTunes ALL IN tune with burbly exhaust on decel for the ultimate RICE.
Finally we flew the car over to Mexico and tested it at the track!
Thanks to @calebquanbeck for shooting some of the footage. Stay tuned for more!
Big thanks to BC Racing, Syncro Design Works, and RK Tunes for making the best products in the game! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Keep these vids coming, its easier to relate to budget builds like this compared to crazy money builds that none of us will ever be able to touch.
Well we will be doing both!
Chelsea DeNofa perfect! Glad to see you putting out more content!
Chelsea DeNofa I'm just curious and I know it doesn't matter since I know what engine it has but is the model 325i, 325is with the m3 sport suspension, or 328i? I guess it's possible it could be 323i but I doubt it. Just wondering🤷🏽♂️
@@chelseadenofa Hey Chelsea, I'll be buying some BC DS Coilovers soon, for my E36, for drifting, and need some advice on Spring Rates. The car is fully stripped and caged so reasonably light.
Which spring rates would you recommend?
Thanks in advance dude 👍
Had the honor of working with David. Super knowledgable and stand up dude. So many late nights in the shop redrilling wheels and turning parts :D Best RTABs ever and he makes some dope diff mods as well
Thanks buddy it was worth asking and thanks so much for the great tips on drifting it's a lot harder than what it looks. You make it look so easy
Keep vlogging bro. You are the future of FD & vids of you wrenching & kickin it makes you relatable to us. Keep killin it!
This is awesome can't wait for more!
you should 100% make more vids like this, good job
Turtle media thats me, I was one of the people with the guy you bought the car from, also was there when we swapped wheels. Awesome to see you building it. I can't wait to get some video of it at parc!
Maad street drift shots at the end. Love the e brake handle. Gotta make me one of those for the next beater
Love this setup. Need to do it to my e36 328i in New Zealand. Still a uncommon drift car here
How do you Not have more subs....U the real deal man! Keep up the vids...love em (Try do more how to's and how shiz works, as in techniques and what they do)....
Super cool to see you drifting around really close to me, never had the balls the try that ramp haha
these videos are the best! Thanks as always. BTW this is @supermandan
why have i never ran across this channel before? subed for sure! I too am building an e36 for my 'learn how to drift car'
Just got my s50 tune from Jordan for my e30!! Awesome progress on the e36 so far
Love the video!!
I wish you had more subscribers because I love ur vids
Looks mad fun.
Dude that looks so fun
nice, sweet vid man, keep it up
hahaha that's sick. It's got some nice 'dorp' induction noise too.
david green is the man. he does great work
chelsea i just found your channel and it was just what i was looking for. e36 mods/tips/sideways e36. love it. wish we were friends so we could drift our e36's in the street together and you could teach me how to mod and drift mine
We want to see you more on youtube Denofa!! Keep it up bro
I am working on it! Hahah busy offseason
Your videos are cool man, keep it up. I'm budget building my e46 318i into a drift car with a 2.8 swap hopefully sourcing an engine soon. Interested to hear your opinions on sway bars for e46's, i'm running stock suspension with lowered springs and plan on upgrading sways, front/rear or both and can you go too stiff for daily driver/track split duty?
Yup, those were Raceland Ultimos! Same as I have. For $400, they're not bad especially when you've got stock suspension with 175k on it and it's all blown.
Would love to go up to some BCs but not quite ready to chuck $1k into my suspension. :( Have to fix all the other nonsense that breaks on E36s first haha.
dude keep it up
Hey Chelsea I just got an 92 e36 and I'm interested in upgrading my trailing arm bushings, I was wondering if you could point me in the right direction as to what I should get, keep up the videos man!
Hey Chelsea, I'm looking into getting an e36/46 as a beginning drift car since they are on the cheap side and I'd like some input on which chassis/models you think I should go for? I'm looking to buy one for under 4 grand.
Hey Chelsea, does the steering stops removal for more angle work on an e46 m3 as well?
Gonna do that e-break extender. #E36love
Wow I got to get my shit tuned damn that s cool
any recommendations for rear camber arms? looking for the best budget ones.
More info on that ebrake setup, mildly confused. Self tapper holding the pipe and the lock in? Put in gear to park?
nice! btw did rktunes software gain good power? i want to try it soon 😁
i noticed you just installed a pipe on the ebrake. are you still using the stock inner drum pads on the rear?
Hey im looking into buying a 1996 328i. Any suggestins, tips, things to watch out for.
The end was radd
Hey Chelsea does Syncro Design makes TABs for E46 M3s aswell. Also you mentioned don't go poly for them, do you recommend poly for everthing else or is there something better?
Gunsand42 yea man! They do!
Great video! One question about the ebrake setup -- is it stock? I always have trouble locking the rears with the stock e36 ebrake, or do you just need the extra leverage provided by the long handle?
+dreamdrivedrift yea man it helps for sure
This video is like a godsend for me. Busy driftifying an E36 right now. How well does the handbrake extension work? I have a partshop max hydro to install, but if the standard brake with an extender works well, I'd rather do that.
budha59 it's ok. Not great. Works tho!
Hi Chelsea !! , at 12:20, you mentioned something about left foot braking as you're going trough the turn. I've been interested in learning why you use it? and how you learned left foot braking ? Thank you !
Zak
Its used to slow the car or move the car to a wide line in drift. I try to never use it besides in tandem. But sometimes ill use it to run a wider line in qualifying.
Does Synchro Design Works make the same bushings for E46? I have a 99 323i 4dr n wana replace all the rear bushings with those cus those would be perfect for my car
yes! Hit them up
Hey Chelsea DeNofa! I was just wundering if it is possible to buy that RK Tunes Burlbe map for a M52B28? ore is there something else for the 328 e36? Im having a B28 driftcar and im looking for a tune chip now :) I love that pup noises afther the rev! you have any cats ore just straight pipe?
greatings from Sweden
Yea buddy! He has a killer tune for the m52!
Chelsea DeNofa
thanks! =)
Do the BC Coils normally come with 10k/12k for the e36? I've noticed a lot of coilovers for BMWs don't take into consideration the lever arm for the coilover mount in the rear.
They can come with whatever you want. If you want, hit me up and I can build you up a set
mint
This is today's option videos in USDM form
do you need subframe reenforments on a e36
The alfa romeo giulia is beautiful 😍
Hey Chelsea! what BC coilovers are those? I'm looking to get a set, but witch would you recommend for a driftcoupe?
I'd recommend the BR-type for mixed use. They are super versatile. Hit me up on IG when you are ready to make a purchase.
lol oregon trail reference.
yo, what are good bc racing spring rates for a stock 99 e46 compact? planning on getting bc racing br coilovers. thanks for the vids man!
8k front and 10 or 12k rear.
Dope video man, i found myself a 323i e46 manual really cheap, will i be able to learn how to drift in it with just a welded diff and some coilovers?
warpappers yea!
warpappers curious, how much is really cheap?
JustIncognito I️ picked up a e36 98 323is 105k Miles for $2500. Is that cheap?
cbk2033 you can find them cheaper but prices have been goin up cuz a lot of people want them
Can I get those bushings for my E30
where can I get that chip at?
great video! i kinda want to sell my s13 and want to try bmw life.
maniac
Dude more mehiko stuff! I mean no it's bad... But more!
I did the whammy bar on my e36. Shit works pretty good for what it is.
Logan 'Clownbaby' Schjoneman YES! WAMMY BAR is the best name!
TEEYOUWANNA Mexico Proving Grounds lmao
Hey Chelsea, I'm the video you mention that the e46 control arms are an upgrade on the e36. I want to swap over to them. But what is the solution for the tie rods. In the forums people have swapped to an e46 tie rod, e34 tie rod, and e90 tie rod. What do I do as far as the inner or outer tie rods. There is also a spacer option. What do you recommend. Thank You for replying to everyone's comments.
E90 tie rod for sure.
Thank You for replying to my comment. You always reply to us, showing that you really care about all your subscribers and drifting. Much Appreciated. You are our favorite drifter because of this. Really quick is it the inner only or the inner and outer e90 tie Rod. Thank You
What type of e36 is that
Yasssss
hey Chelsea can u do more of the dissecting drifting videos, there really intresting thx 👍
Sure can!
Idk if you already answered this already, but what spring rates do you have on the e36? I️ just ordered bc’s
14k front and 12k rear. For street cars I run 9k 12k
Chelsea DeNofa okay. My car will be a little bit stiffer and probably have less grip in rear. A buddy told me to order 10k front 14k. Rear. I️ can always change springs or upgrade to Swift’s. Thanks man I️ appreciate it. My homies actually drove with you at bash. My friends won team tandem. Repping Sacramento lol
These websites still available? Anyone know
you need more subs man. you're a fucking pro driver for Damn sake lol. keep going Chelsea shit is gnar
Are those bushing better than PU ones? Because those are supposed to last a lifetime.
Nevermind, you just now covered that. :)
He said 7 k and 5 k spring and in the discription its 10 and 12?
im confused haah
Are coming to Texas for the lone star drift even of march?
IM HERE NOW! Houston class!
Chelsea DeNofa cool! So it will be the 4th/5th but where I can get more info like how much etc. I already check lone star website and there is not much there. Thanks!
Is caleb quanbeck filming, it kindof sounds like his voice!
Yeah it's his footage i think
Some of it is him filming for sure!
Chelsea DeNofa do a review on your other E36 soon, thing's rad
Caleb has a video of the same day on his channel with some more drifting footage too.
I bought a 92 325i last night and I was sliding it a little bit because it was raining and a hose popped off the radiator and snapped off the piece that the hose is suppose to go on. What should I do? Get another stock radiator or upgraded
Christian Kaestner upgrade if you have the
money
Yea, get an aftermarket alloy radiator. It'll be your best bet. While you're in there get a metal water pump if you don't already have it, and check the clutch fan.
Chelsea DeNofa thank you for the response. But the worst possible thing happened. I blew the head gasket and I'm selling the car today haha that's what I get for buying a car with 213k miles.
so.. where is the tune?, only thing i noticed was chip
Can anyone compare using Turner RTAB limiters (on stock RTABs) to using these Syncro Design Works RTABs?
+Nick Amarit the others are junk
How does the Syncro Design Works RTAB handle daily driving vibrations? My Delrin FCABs are indestructible, but the vibrations in them (from daily driving) busted my FCA ball joints prematurely... so I was wondering about this Syncro Design Works RTAB - whether something similar'll happen or not?
Hat is the tune exactly doing?
FlowForce adds about 20hp and makes a lot bigger powerband over the last turner tune
Love the Alfa, is that the Fulvia? I'd love to get one someday just need a garage first :D
eforsblom GTV 1750
It's gorgeous. Fun to drive too?
I wouldn't know. I have neglected it for the last few years. It is in the middle of a s2000 motor swap... But I have not had time for it.
Hey Chelsea! I was just wondering if you could settle my curiosity and tell me why you dont like wisefab suspension parts?
the car kinda does a crab walk and bobbles in mid drift unless you have a shit ton of toe and acronym spacers and wisefab eliminates the front swaybar and hes huge on having a front sway bar and a couple other things i think
Awhh ok i see! So you can run a sway bar with SLR? What stops you from running a sway bar with Wisefab?
I don't like their cheap water jetted design, its brittle, it has no sway bar provision, terrible caster trail, 0 Ackerman, and a a lot more
Awhh Ok! So it has no place really in Pro drifting only at amatuer level? would love to see you come to Ireland for some drifting! Forest Wang was over in 2016!
im hoping to get an e36 soon, would it be a better idea to get an angle kit or just fab up my own kit.
R you going to sell the old coilover I need them so bad
They went on my girlfriends car
Welded or limited slip diff ??
Nice car ;)
welded. Soon to be 3.91 welded
Wasn't the how to drift car a grey e46?
This is the new how to drift car, that will have mods, unlike the other one we taught all the basics with.
My Rtabs are fucked. I hear the trailing arm smacking the cage back and forth when I beat on it
Hahaha, get some new ones.
Chelsea DeNofa there on the list of things to do lmao. There original to the car and it has 209k on it.
#stillmoreanglethanaasbo
How can I get some of those bushings ?
Syncro Design Works sells them
I'm so bummed out about the fact that E46 control arms just fit on the E36 and there's no such thing for E46s. You have to spend 1k+ for a complete kit, even if all you want is a wider track and more camber.
fuel injection is so confusing to me, how do you know what cc to upgrade your injectors to?
You can select whatever you want as long as the car is tuned for it.
Chelsea DeNofa So I can run let's say the stock injectors are 370cc I can run 550 or something as long as it gets tuned and my fuel system is able to run it?
You kinda got it, I'm running 1200cc injectors and make on 550 whp. I still get 24mpgs.. All things are possible with the right ecu (AEM Infinity) and Tuner.
Although if you go big and cheap tuning for idle and really low loads might be hard. Just ask your tuner or a shop for help. Also -> www.finjector.com/en/injector-calculator/
Wish I could buy the fd lol
That fd tho
hey how much for one of those tunes?? i need the burble in my life haha
Hit up Jordan and tell him I sent you!
Chelsea DeNofa ok cool thank you
Wot spring rates???
10k front 12k rear
Where can I get that tune
Zach Thomas @rktunes on instagram. Not sure if they have a website or not but their ig will probably point you in the right direction.
Yea man! Hit him up! Jordan at. RK kills it.
????Do you actually need strut bars for drifting?
That's a stupid question. Of course you do, strut bars, sway bars, adjustable suspension so that you can get grip without getting a ton of roll, and have a car that's planted and feels connected to the road and not feeling like you should be wearing flippy floppies (because you are on a boat).
Michael Wyz strut bars are not that important. Only if you have weak towers like the 36/46 is it actually a big deal.
I wanna buy the pillow ball things, I'm in canada
more drift come on
What happened to the E46?
Its for sale! $2000, turn key with wheels.
Chelsea DeNofa was just curious what made you make the switch from that to this E36. See you this weekend
Man, Mexico is really looking like clackmas or troutdale these days....
Hey Chelsea!! I need some of those bushing for the e36 I just picked up as a drift missile!! I DM'd you on Instagram if you check that more. Thanks!
can u hook me up with those bushings? live in sweden tho :/
Yea man. Just message me on IG.
I just got Poly installed on my trailing arms ._.
I guess he meant M50 engine
Nope it has an S50.
My bad. I guess the intake mani fooled me. I thought S50's came with ITB's. and looks like yours had an M50 intake manifold with single throttle body. I stand corrected.
euro s50 comes with itbs we got shafted over here
hay get an e30 my dude.
I had one and really like the 36 chassis more
Chelsea DeNofa i have one but its just a shell and my brother has a e36 2 door he wants to put an ls or a 1jz in it he can't make up his mind
looks like m50 not s50
Robertas how can you tell? The only real way to tell by looking is to check the block part number.
but it is not real s50, us right?
